However, the code is still buggy even after your fix. We are missing: if (errno) break; before attempting the sscanf. Furthermore, sscanf() is undefined on overflow; while the cpudir is unlikely to be giving us integers that overflow, it would be nicer to not use sscanf in the first place. It's more than just the improper use of readdir that needs fixing here. I'm debating whether to push this now and fix the rest as a followup, or whether to do a v2 that fixes it all at once.
